The BSP would support a government of "There is Such a People" only after an agreement was signed with Slavi Trifonov's party, BSP leader Korneliya Ninova said. The final decision would be made when the staff of the Council of Ministers became clear.

According to Ninova, the agreement must guarantee the implementation of set goals, as well as that the red lines between the political forces would not be crossed. BSP and ITN have already achieved convergence of positions on health care, education and social activities, but differences remain. The Socialists want recalculation of pensions to take place on October 1, while the ITN envisage the measure to take effect on January 1, 2022.
